Advanced ‘Ski Bipod’ from Canada
Here’s a product that should interest all F-Class shooters. It is a new bipod that offers unrivaled stability from an ultra-wide footprint. Nick-named the “Ski Bipodâ€, this impressive unit is custom-crafted by Canadian Henry Remple, who also conceived the design. The height of the bipod is adjustable as is the distance between the runners or “skis†that contact the ground. And there is a cant adjustment allowing the rifle to be leveled on uneven ground. The reason Henry used ski-like runners rather than flat pads is that this allows the rifle to slide slightly reward during recoil. That eliminates much of the hop and rotation associated with conventional bipods. Downside? Well, since the Ski Bipod attaches to your rifle, it counts in your total weight under the rules. The Ski Bipod adds roughly 3.5 pounds to your gun’s weight. The cost is around $400-420 Cdn,this basically covers the cost of materials and all that milling work.)
To get one, contact Henry Rempel from Calgary. He does not have a web site. His home phone number,after 7 pm) is 1-403-272-8416. I think his email is henry.rempel [at] hotmail.com.â€
The above information is a couple of years old and prices may have changed by now..........Bob.

I purchased a Ski Foot Bi-Pod and several different adapters from Henry Remple back in March. He was awesome to deal with, I sent an email to henry.rempel@hotmail.com, we traded a couple of emails, he called me and the deal was done. I am guessing if you are having difficulties contacting him, he is busy, he did not seem the type who would blow you off.
